Make a game load something else?

[wiiztec]

Is there a codetype that will tell the game when it tries to read a value at an address to read a different value at a different address?

[Romaap]

No, there is no codetype that does that.
But it is possible with ASM.

[wiiztec]

lol the only thing I know about ASM is in your video about breakpoints

[Almas]

Find the address you want it to read from. Put a "read" breakpoint on this address. Make sure "specific value" or whatever is checked (that is, it doesn't break on addresses near your value).

Execute the breakpoint several times, checking to see exactly how many different addresses (this is the part at the bottom) read from your address. It may be the case that you have to insert assembly branches at more than one of them. If the address is only read from infrequently (e.g. it doesn't continually do it the moment you set up the breakpoint), then try navigating through menus, changing the circumstances etc. to try and discover any other places that may read it).

The "read" command will more than likely be of the form "lwz rx, n(rm)". Find a single safe register at the part you will be writing a branch to. Write a C2 branch codetype to this address. In it, use your safe register to load the address you want the value to be read from (e.g. if it is an absolute address 0x80581234 then we would have lis rs, 0x8058 ori rs, rs, 0x1234. For a relative address, use this to find the start of the tree then a series of lwz rs, p(rs) to go down it until you have your desired value), then have the last command be lwz rx, 0(rs).

If you don't understand that, watch the ASM video again. Not that I know what's in the ASM video. But it probably has enough.

I ended up using an easier but incomplete method of switching the names of 2 files to each other with the file system tree then going to the addresses in memory viewer and making GCT code lines out of all of them

I ended up with this

switches the music that normally plays in the final valley stage for the music that plays when the match is Naruto vs Sasuke

When I set read breakpoint it broke when any stage was about to load and when I used exact match option it didn't break at all
